Control for Inter-session Network Coding
Atilla Eryılmaz, Desmond S. Lun · 2006
Abstract — We propose a dynamic routing-scheduling-coding strategy for serving multiple unicast sessions when linear network coding is allowed across sessions. Noting that the set of stabilizable throughput levels in this context is an open problem, we prove that our strategy supports any point in the non-trivial region of achievable rates recently characterized by Traskov et al. [1]. This work also provides a theoretical framework in which the gains of intersession network coding and pure routing can be compared. I.
